The FPÖ is questioning what happens to those refugees who are turned back by Germany but do not appear in Austria's statistics.
"If the rejections of 'new migrants' at the German border have increased by half, but according to the Ministry of the Interior there have been no asylum applications on the Austrian side, then one must ask: Where have these illegal immigrants gone?" said security spokesperson Gernot Darmann.
Ministry of the Interior: Situation at the Borders is Calm
In a statement, he wonders if these people are now living as "submarines" in Austria: "They should also be deported immediately." Darmann reiterated his party's demand for a "complete asylum stop."
The Ministry of the Interior points out that the situation at the borders is calm - "apparently much to the chagrin of some political parties."
